Even though Templeton may not appear to be, he is nothing more than an affectionate goof. He's a lackadaisical boy who never turns down an offer to kick back and enjoy a good snack. Templeton is one of the most inquisitve Tokos around, always willing to learn more and go on wilderness adventures. He is brave when by his handler's side as she is his most treasured companion. There is almost nothing he wouldn't do for her. Unfortunately he picks favorites and, while remaining friendly, is not too concerned with any other humans' welbeing. Although he may seem like an over-grown pup sometimes, he has been known to become aggressively protective over what he considers his and can be grouchy when provoked. All in all he is sweet and loyal to the end, but definitely knowns when it's time to stop playing and take care of business... well, after a little bribery anyway.
